The prep, including scraping of stucco and wood, was thorough, and the finished paint job looks beautiful. Areas that had looked a bit shabby are now gleaming with new life! We are very happy with the result. Dan, our painter, was meticulous, hard-working and quick, plus being a nice person, whom we were happy to have at our place. Other staff members with whom we had contact (Mike, the manager, whom we saw in person several times; and Sunny, who sent well-written daily updates with photos) were also a pleasure to deal with--always friendly and professional. We warmly recommend Parkside Painting!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.marnie bradfield2024-08-21Our highest praise for Parkside Painting. We’ve had two contracts in the last couple of years. This company is professional and delivers excellent service and product . From the initial quote, daily progress reports to the final “walk through” we could not be more satisfied. This last job required repair and restoration and Dan, a painter/artisan was able to resolve issues that went well beyond the original contract. I so appreciated. Parkside’s /Mike’s/Dan’s ability to reschedule our job as I had given them dates that ultimately did not work well for me..in terms of overseas guests. What a relief to have professional assistance with competence and consideration. We would highly recommend this company for your next painting project. You will not be disappointed!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Kent Green2024-06-19We had Parkside Painting prep and paint all the window and door trim, soffits and some siding on our 1933 home, and they did a great job. As an architect, I have a list of good contractors in town and I know other good painters, but we were in a hurry to get started and those others were many months or even next year away, so we listened to Mike from Parkside who carefully measured up the scope of the work. 1. He gave us a price with various qualities of materials from good to excellent for us to choose from, within 24 hours. 2. They shuffled there schedule and crew to start that week. 3. The crew was courteous, professional and personable - no foul language, no getto blasters blazing. 4. They kept us informed of there timing and process, and we recieved written progress reports daily. 5. The prep work was thorough, and any anomalies were brought to our attention with proposals for solutions for our consideration. 6. The work was efficiently organized to account for the weather forecast. 7. The minor changes to the work were fairly accounted for and easy to arrange. 8. The job was finished a half a day early, and we are very happy with the result. 9 The 4 day stay in a resort offer is a bit gimmicky. I doubt it will turn out to be a BIG 6 Motel along side a freeway, but even if that turns out to be so, for the reasonable price for an excellent experience and paint job, I would hire Parkside again.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.francie howard2024-06-19Quick, efficient, seems knowlegeable, but not cheapTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Tiffany G-S2024-06-18We recently engaged Parkside Painting to paint several areas (both interior and exterior) of our heritage house and Dan did a fantastic job. In addition to painting, they installed a backsplash in our bathroom and a concrete door sill at our basement door. Throughout the entire job they were professional, prompt, courteous, had clear communication, and executed high-quality work. Parkside delivered on what they said they’d do at the price we were quoted. We appreciated the daily updates. Would definitely recommend.

During an estimate, we will engage in crucial discussions to ensure a clear understanding of the scope of work, preferences, and expectations. The following are key topics that will be covered during the estimate.
Project Scope:
We will discuss the specific areas of the exterior that need painting. This includes surfaces such as siding, trim, doors, windows, shutters, and any other architectural features. Defining the project scope helps in estimating the amount of time, labor, and materials required.
Surface Condition and Repairs:
We assess the condition of the exterior surfaces. Any existing damage, such as peeling paint, cracks, or wood rot, is identified. Discussions revolve around the necessary repairs and preparations required before the actual painting begins.
Color and Finish Selection:
Choosing the right color and finish is an important aspect of the painting process. If unsure we can offer a free color consultation to assist.
2
We discuss the type and quality of paint and materials to be used for the project. This includes considerations such as the durability of the paint, resistance to weather elements, and any special coatings or sealants required for specific surfaces.
3
Detailed discussions take place regarding the preparatory work needed for the project. This may involve pressure washing, scraping, sanding, caulking, and priming to ensure a smooth and durable finish. Clear communication about the prep work helps manage homeowner expectations and contributes to the overall project timeline.
4
We discuss measures to protect non-painted areas. This includes landscaping, windows, doors, light fixtures, and other elements that should be shielded from paint splatter or damage during the painting process.
5
The estimated timeline for the project is discussed, taking into account factors such as weather conditions, the size of the property, and the extent of the work. Homeowners may express any time constraints or preferences, and we provide an overview of the project’s duration.
6
We discuss logistical considerations such as access to the property. This includes parking arrangements, areas for equipment storage, and any specific requirements for the painting crew while they are on-site.
7
The terms of the contract, including payment details are discussed.
8
We will discuss the warranty and guarantees associated with the work. This includes information on the lifespan of the paint, the durability of the finish, and any warranties provided by the paint manufacturer.
9
We provide information about insurance coverage and licensing. It is important to be protected in case of unforeseen issues.
10
Meticulous preparation is essential for achieving a durable and aesthetically pleasing finish. The prep work is a critical phase that lays the groundwork for the success of the entire project. Here’s an in-depth view of the prep work that is required.
Surface Repair and Patching:
Addressing any existing damage is crucial for the success of the paint job. We perform repairs such as fixing cracks, filling holes, and replacing or repairing damaged wood. This step ensures that the exterior is structurally sound and ready for painting.
Pressure Washing:
Pressure washing is employed to thoroughly clean the exterior surfaces. This removes accumulated dirt, dust, mold, mildew, and other contaminants. Pressure washing also helps reveal any hidden issues and provides a clean canvas for the new paint to adhere to, promoting better durability. We do not recommend pressure washing very old homes especially heritage homes as the pressure may damage the surfaces.
Scraping and Sanding:
Loose or peeling paint is carefully scraped away, and surfaces are sanded to create a smooth and even texture. This step is essential for promoting proper paint adhesion and preventing the new paint from flaking or peeling prematurely.
Caulking and Sealing:
Gaps, seams, and joints are caulked to seal against moisture and air infiltration. Caulking not only enhances the appearance of the exterior but also contributes to energy efficiency and protects against potential water damage.
Priming:
Applying a high-quality primer is a crucial step, especially on bare or repaired surfaces. Primer acts as a protective barrier, enhances adhesion, and ensures that the final paint color appears uniform. The choice of primer depends on the type of surface and the type of paint to be used.
Protecting Non-Painted Areas:
Features and elements not intended for paint are carefully protected. This includes covering windows, doors, light fixtures, landscaping, and any other non-painted surfaces. Drop cloths, plastic sheeting, and masking are used to shield these areas from accidental paint splatter.
Masking and Taping:
Precise masking and taping are essential for achieving clean lines and preventing unintentional paint application on adjacent surfaces. This step ensures a professional finish, especially when dealing with intricate architectural details.
Selecting High-Quality Paint and Tools:
We prioritize the use of high-quality paint and tools. The selection of the right type of paint, finish, and specific tools plays a crucial role in the durability and visual appeal of the final result.
Weather Considerations:
Exterior painting is ideally scheduled during dry weather with mild temperatures. The painting crew take into account weather conditions to ensure optimal paint application, drying, and curing.
Safety Measures:
Safety is a priority during the entire painting process. Our painting crew uses proper safety equipment, secures ladders, and follows safety protocols to protect both themselves and the occupants of the home.
11
We follow a systematic process to apply premium quality paint to the home’s exterior surfaces. The following steps outline the painting process:
Setting Up the Workspace:
Before starting the actual painting, our painting crew ensures that the work area is properly set up. This includes placing drop cloths to protect the ground, covering nearby plants and fixtures, and securing any necessary equipment.
Inspecting Prepped Surfaces:
A final inspection of the prepped surfaces is conducted to ensure that all repairs, cleaning, and priming have been executed to our high standards. Any remaining issues are addressed before painting begins.
Applying Paint to Trim and Detail Work:
The painting process often starts with the application of paint to the trim, fascia, soffits, and other detailed elements. Precision is crucial, and painter’s tape may be used to create clean lines and avoid unintended color bleeding.
“Cutting In” the Edges:
Our skilled painters “cut in” by carefully applying paint along the edges of the home, including where surfaces meet, such as corners and borders. This step sets the foundation for the broader application of paint.
Spraying or Rolling the Main Surfaces:
Depending on the size and texture of the main surfaces, a combination of spraying and rolling techniques may be employed. Spraying is efficient for large, flat areas, while rolling helps achieve an even finish and work paint into textured surfaces.
Maintaining a “Wet Edge”:
To prevent visible seams and achieve a uniform finish, our painters maintain a “wet edge.” This involves overlapping each stroke or section while the paint is still wet, preventing lap marks and ensuring a seamless appearance.
Applying Multiple Coats:
Depending on the type and color of the paint, multiple coats may be necessary for complete coverage. Our professional painters follow manufacturer recommendations for drying times between coats to achieve optimal results.
Detailing and Accentuating Features:
Once the main surfaces are covered, attention turns to detailing and accentuating architectural features. This includes careful painting of doors, windows, shutters, and any other elements that contribute to the home’s visual appeal.
Addressing Paint Drips and Imperfections:
Throughout the painting process, our crew monitors for any paint drips or imperfections. These are addressed promptly to ensure a flawless finish. Quality control checks are conducted regularly to maintain a high standard of workmanship.
Allowing Paint to Dry:
After completing the painting, our crew allows the paint to dry thoroughly. This may involve waiting for a specific period before assessing whether additional coats are necessary or if touch-ups are required.
12
This process is crucial to ensure a polished finish and the overall success of the project. Here’s a step-by-step description of what to expect.
Removal of Protective Coverings:
Once the painting is completed, the first step in the cleanup process is the removal of protective coverings. This includes removing plastic sheeting, drop cloths, and any other materials used to shield non-painted surfaces, such as windows, plants, and outdoor furniture.
Collection of Tools and Equipment:
Painting tools and equipment, including brushes, rollers, and paint cans, are gathered and organized. Any unused paint is sealed properly for storage or disposal, and brushes and rollers are cleaned thoroughly.
Cleanup of Debris:
Our crew systematically collects and disposes of any debris generated during the painting process. This may include paint chips, masking tape, or other materials. The goal is to leave the exterior area clean and free of any remnants from the painting work.
Cleaning Windows and Fixtures:
Windows and fixtures that may have accumulated paint splatter or other residues are cleaned. Any painter’s tape or protective coverings on windows are removed, and the glass is cleaned to ensure clarity.
Final Inspection of Painted Surfaces:
A detailed inspection of the painted surfaces is conducted to ensure that the paint has been applied evenly, with no drips, sags, or missed spots. Any imperfections or areas that require touch-ups are identified.
Touch-Up Painting:
If any areas are identified during the inspection that need touch-ups or additional coats, the crew addresses these promptly. This step is crucial for achieving a consistent and high-quality finish across all surfaces.
Cleaning Exterior Features:
Exterior features like doors, shutters, or other painted elements are inspected and cleaned. Any hardware or fixtures that were removed or covered are reinstalled, ensuring that the exterior looks complete and well-kept.
13
Once the painting is complete and the cleanup is done, our production manager will carry out a detailed inspection with you to ensure everything meets your standards. If any areas are identified that require touch ups, these issues are remedied at this time. Remember, we don’t collect payment until you’re 100% satisfied with the work.
14
If at any time during the warranted period you notice any imperfections, we will come back and fix it for you free of charge. Remember, we don’t collect any payment until you’re 100% satisfied with the work.
